The NYPD arrested a man last night suspected for the attempted rape of a 23-year-old woman jogging in Forest Park on Friday night.

“I am thrilled that the police have been able to arrest this individual and that this person will not be terrorizing anymore,” said Heidi Chain, president of the 112th Precinct Community Council.

According to police, the man who was arrested, Richard Kassebaum, 43, was convicted of manslaughter for killing his aunt more than 20 years ago in Flushing. He has been on parole for the 1990 murder since 2009.

It was around 9:30 p.m. when the alleged attacker used a stun gun to debilitate a woman as she was jogging through the park. She was later taken to an area hospital for injuries sustained to her neck. A couple walking their dog distracted the assaulter who later fled from the scene.

The 102nd Precinct was on the hunt for a white male between the ages of 35 and 40, medium build and last seen wearing a gold hoop earing, navy blue sweatshirt, navy blue track pants with reddish/brown hair and facial hair over the weekend.
